You’re in a court of law, and you’re accused of eating a bunch of strawberries out of a local greenhouse. The prosecutor pulls up a recording from the security camera, and your attorney yells 「異議あり！」, and you point out the single strawberry you ate. Somebody (or something) else is responsible for the disappearance of the other strawberries. Good luck in court!

How can you show an already eaten strawberry to someone, to demonstrate?

Another “not a hint” and “not rage”… but still really weird.

I understand that it’s looking for something entirely different here, but “add something–just kidding, remove it” is pretty unclear wording

Hi @harukakat! The hints were confusing, so we’ve updated them! They should be a bit clearer now. Thank you for pointing it out!

I understand why I’m wrong here, but I find the hint to be confusing. It made me think it’s asking for something completely different.
Also, this one doesn’t get a warning.

Hi, I have a question.
Is it possible to turn off these annoying pop-up hints? I do the cloze reviews, and at N3/ N2 level it is almost impossible to do it without the translation hint. I tried to fully turn off the hints, hoping that these pop-up hints would go away, but they still come up. Can it be turned down and only have the regular hints written under the sentence?
I am considering ditching bunpro after the JLPT exam in July, even though I paid for the lifetime access because these hints are just too annoying. I am sometimes on the verge of crying, just trying to do my reviews after a full day of work and these are exactly as useful as someone mocking me that I am stupid and will never learn Japanese.
Thank you.
what do you mean by pop-up hints?
Hey @Viki ,
We apologize for the frustration that these hints are causing. Right now, there isn’t a setting to disable the pop-up hint.
We are aware that there are hints that are too vague to be helpful, and we are currently in the process of reworking them. The goal for the reworked hints is to explain why an answer is wrong/isn’t accepted s an answer and point our students towards the correct grammar point without giving the answer away.
I apologize that this won’t help in time for your JLPT exam in July, but if you come across a question with vague/unhelpful hints, please feel free to use the feedback system to let us know, so that we can prioritize them.
The hints which can give people visceral rage.
Example below. There are the regular hints which can be turned on and off, but there is no setting to turn off these.
ahh i see what you mean
sorry my brain didnt process pop up very well
Since the creation of this thread, I consider it a treasure to come across a grammar point that I can get a pile of yellow shake messages for.
(Though I sure didn’t find the right answer to this one. Tbh I don’t even think the messages are bad. I just really couldn’t think of a grammar structure that often has a negative nuance.)
